In Destiny 2's Guardian Games event, Titans are currently dominating to an extreme degree, potentially due to a bug or algorithm imbalance. This has led to concerns about the fairness of the competition and the incentive structure, with players flocking to the winning class for valuable rewards. The situation has sparked controversy and criticism, with some questioning the event's balance and mechanics.
Destiny 2's Guardian Games event introduces the Skimmer hoverboard, the game's first new vehicle type, which can be obtained for free but requires completing a quest to keep it after the event ends. The quest involves earning 1,200 points in the Medallion Score, achieving a top 10% score in Nightfall Challenges, and opening Focus Winner Packages. Strategies for completing these tasks are discussed, including linking Bungie and Twitch accounts to earn points, timing Nightfall runs for easier scoring, and playing as a Hunter to collect winner packages.
Destiny 2's Guardian Games event is facing several issues, including a limited-time loot exploit being shut down quickly, class-based matchmaking being disabled for Crucible and Gambit, confusing UI for focused activities, and an annoying new Trials card mechanic.

Bungie's Guardian Games event in Destiny 2 introduces the Skimmer, a hoverboard that can be earned through the event itself, and Hullabaloo, a new heavy arc wave grenade launcher with unique rolls.

Bungie surprised Destiny 2 players with the announcement of hoverboards, known as "Skimmers," which will be introduced during the Guardian Games event. These surfboard-like vehicles offer a fresh and fun addition to the game, allowing players to perform tricks and grind on various surfaces. While some may criticize the move, others see it as a much-needed breath of fresh air in the game, providing a lighthearted and enjoyable element amidst ongoing PvP updates and other issues.
Bungie mistakenly sent an in-game message announcing that Warlocks had won Destiny 2's Guardian Games event, which is scheduled to end on May 23. The studio later clarified that the message was "erroneous" and that the winning class has not been officially announced yet. Guardian Games gives players medallions for activities across the game, and the class that earns the most medallions will win. Bungie is also adding new accessibility options to Destiny 2 for color blindness.
Destiny 2's Guardian Games event has introduced a new scout rifle called Taraxippos, which is the first Strand scout rifle in the game.

A new Legendary Shard farm has been discovered in Destiny 2 that requires players to purchase a specific class item from last year's Guardian Games for 777 Glimmer and then dismantle it for 4 Legendary Shards and 250 Glimmer. Players can also set up an AFK macro to speed up the process, but there is a risk of suspension or ban. Bungie has since disabled the ability to reacquire the class item from collections, making the farm impossible.
